This is a review of another recording from Spain's Proclamation which continues the bestial mixture of war, black and death metal and the album was originally released in 2008 and called "Messiah Of Darkness And Impurity" which was also re-issued in 2020 as a joint effort between Nuclear War Now! Productions and Ross Bay Cult.
A very dark and ritualistic sounding intro starts off the album along with some synths before going into a very fast, raw and brutal war metal direction which also uses a great amount of blast beats and tremolo picking along with the vocals being a mixture of bestial growls and black metal screams.
A lot of the music also shows some influences of both the Canadian and Finnish styles of the early 90's era while also sounding like Blasphemy mixed with Archgoat at times. Throughout the recording you can also hear a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with the solos and leads also being done in a very raw yet chaotic style.
All of the musical instruments on the recording also having a very powerful sound to them along with the synths also make a brief return on some of the tracks as well as the vocals also add in more of a demonic atmosphere in the more ritualistic side of the music, all of the riffing is mostly done on power chords. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Satanism, Blasphemy and Desecration themes.
In my opinion this was another great sounding recording from Proclamation and if you are a fan of war bestial black/death metal, you should check out this re-issue. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Nocturnal Damnation" Remains Of Sacrifice" "Tyrants Of Desolation" and "Sabbat of Vengeance". 8out of 10.
